Chapter 6: See the Chamber of Secrets Again

Seeing that it was these two guys, my hanging heart finally let go, so I thought to ask them what the hell was going on, how they got behind the stone wall.

But then the little thing suddenly grabbed me by the leg of my trousers, and motioned for me to go with it, and glanced at the old thing, who walked to the door knowingly, and then leaned against the stone door.

When the little imp pulled me down the stone door, he began to squeak incessantly, and then jumped up and down for a while, showing me what had just happened to them

I've lived with the little ghost head for so long, and of course I can understand what it means, so I can probably see what it's all about.

The little ghost head means that when they first entered the stone chamber outside, they didn't actually find the stone chamber behind the stone wall, but the old thing accidentally stepped on the mechanism that opened the stone chamber, so a stone door appeared on the wall.

They walked in one after the other, but just as they entered the stone chamber, the stone door suddenly closed automatically.

And the crashing sound I just heard was the movement they made to open the stone door.

It was the old thing that banged on the door, and the sound of scratching the wall was naturally made by the little ghost.

When the little ghost head was just here, he suddenly picked up a round stone plate the size of a palm from the ground and showed it to me, and when I took it, I found that on the other side of the stone plate, there was a protruding triangle, and at the same time, I saw that there was a concave triangle on the wall.

I walked over and compared it, and I found that the stone plate happened to be embedded in this stone wall, and I immediately understood what was going on.

And at this moment, the little ghost head is making another gesture to me, which means that the old thing inadvertently grabbed the stone disk that opened the mechanism, and also opened the stone door, but its strength was too great, so that the stone disk was unscrewed off by it.

The little ghost's brain is very bright, and at a glance, he knows that this stone plate is the mechanism that opens the stone door, but it was damaged by the old thing, so it was worried that we would be trapped here again, so the old thing was on the door.

After reading its expression, I immediately felt that this fat hen-like big rat was really a sperm, otherwise how could there be such a careful mind, I immediately touched its little head melon, and then gave it a thumbs up.

As soon as the guy saw that I was complimenting it, he immediately raised his head high, followed by a "squeak" squeak, and seemed extremely excited.

Then I began to look at the situation here, but because of the dim light, I couldn't see the situation inside clearly, so I went out and picked up the torch that had just fallen on the ground again, and then I found that next to the stone gate, there was really a protruding stone, presumably this should be the mechanism that opened the stone door.

I didn't pay attention to it at the moment, but walked into the stone chamber with a torch.

Under the light of the fire, the outline of the stone chamber gradually became clear, this stone chamber looked larger than the one outside, and there were also a lot of iron shelves on both sides of the wall, and in the center was a round stone table, on which a red circular pattern was painted, which looked like the national flag of Japan.

There was also a knife for carving on the table, and directly behind it was a row of large squares made of blue bricks, on which were placed many strangely shaped stone statues, the faces of these stone statues were very ugly, and they looked extremely terrifying.

But among the many stone statues, there is one that is particularly eye-catching, the position of this stone statue is just in the center of the large square grid, about half a meter high, but the strange thing is that the head of this stone statue, carved with countless pairs of eyes, is dense, looks indescribably evil and disgusting, I just looked at it, and I felt that this scalp was numb.

There was also a snake coiled above the head of the statue, and the tail of the snake was stuck in the head, as if it had grown out of this bag.

Looking at it with its hands folded again, it looks like a great monk, and his image is extremely abrupt, which makes people look very disgusted.

When I saw this, I had more doubts in my heart, in fact, from the time I discovered that secret passage, I was full of doubts, first of all, what is the use of this little Japan building such two secret rooms in this place where birds don't? And what is the meaning of the stone statues with so many people and ghosts? And what are those iron shelves used for?

I was so confused by this series of questions that my head was bigger, and I couldn't come up with a clue after thinking about it for a long time, so I simply didn't want to think about it

Then I looked around again, and saw that there was nothing to see here, so I prepared to call the little ghost out.

However, at this time, just look at this little guy, who is scurrying back and forth on those stone statues, as if he is very interested in those stone statues.

I was worried that something would happen to it again, so I beckoned it to go, but it ignored me, and stopped on top of a bald stone statue, and its nose was still sniffing something.

I was curious, so I looked at it quietly.

Then it jumped on top of the other statues and sniffed at them, and after a while it was back on top of the bald statue, and then it looked up at me and pouted, as if it was still a little excited.

I hurriedly stepped forward to check, but I couldn't see why, so I sniffed it one by one.

I inhaled hard a few times, and immediately I smelled a foul smell, as if it was coming from behind the bald stone statue, and I sniffed other things, which also smelled this way, but not as strong as this one

I guessed there must be something strange behind this, so I went to move the stone statue.

However, this thing doesn't look big, but it's very heavy, and I didn't even move it under normal circumstances.

At that moment I took another breath, and then my feet and waist exerted force at the same time, and I slowly lifted it up, and at the same time, I heard a click, and I saw that the large squares where these stone statues were placed suddenly opened from the middle to the sides, and there was still a space behind it

I was a little excited, and immediately placed the stone statue on the ground, then picked up the torch and shone it inside.

However, this photo immediately frightened me back two steps, because there was a person sitting here, yes! That's right, it's a person.

I thought about many possibilities, but I just didn't think that there would be a person in it, which really scared me a lot.

I stabilized my mind, and when I looked at it again, I found that this man was an old man, and I saw him sitting cross-legged, his head bowed, his hair gray, and his hair hung down to the top of a box he was holding in his hand, and his face was blocked by hair, and I couldn't see his appearance clearly.

After waiting for a while, I saw that there had been no movement in this old road, so I cautiously stepped forward to check, only to find that this old road turned out to be a dried corpse

The dried corpse in front of him is very well preserved, if you don't look carefully, you think it's a living person, except for his sagging skin and dry flattening, the others are basically no different from a living person.

I have seen in the Secret Stories that there are two kinds of dried corpses, one is a foreign mummy, and the other is a domestic coffin.

In 1973, the Astana cemetery unearthed the "ancient corpse of Zhang Xiong"; At the end of 1985, a dried body of a baby was unearthed; In 1995, two dried corpses buried together were unearthed at the Niya site; In April 1980, the famous ancient corpse of Loulan was unearthed in Lop Nur; In 2005, two dried corpses, a man and a woman, were unearthed in Xinjiang that had been sleeping for thousands of years.

Therefore, this dried corpse is still very common, and the dried corpse is formed due to the dehydration of the corpse due to the drying of the dead environment, and the corpse does not decompose.

The characteristics of the dried corpse are: the body is gray, the skin and flesh are dry and close to the bones, and the belly is sunken.

Since our area is the Inner Mongolia Plateau, the natural environment here is generally relatively dry, and the wind is strong, and the corpse is easy to become a dry corpse.

Some people die, and after a short period of time, hair and nails will continue to grow, because after the heart stops beating, the tissue cells of the body are not all dead, and some skin tissues are still alive.

After knowing that it was a dried corpse, I was relieved, and then carefully took down the box he was holding, put it on the round table, and then groped around the deceased for a long time to see if there was anything that could prove his identity, but I found nothing for a long time.

This inevitably disappoints me a little, but judging from the clothes, this dried corpse should have been a Taoist priest before his death.

Seeing a dried corpse that looks like a Taoist priest here, it is even more strange in my heart, a Taoist priest will appear in a stone chamber built by the Japanese, and there are so many terrifying stone statues carved here, why, is it a coincidence? Or maybe they were captured by the Japanese?

But looking at him like this, he should be more peaceful when he dies, which means that he was not caught here, so what could it be?

I thought about it for a long time, but I still didn't have any clue, so I stopped caring about the corpse and began to look at the box.

The color of the box is relatively simple, less than two feet long, about one foot wide, the top of the box is engraved with a Tai Chi pattern, and there is a copper lock on the opening and closing, I tried to pull it, this lock is still quite strong, and it can't be opened without a key.

So I rummaged through the dead man for a long time, but found nothing.

I decided to ignore it for now, and it wasn't too late to study it when I got back.

I picked up the box, looked around again, and saw that there was nothing left except the iron shelves, so I beckoned the little devil and the old thing, and returned to the temple the way I came
